Aww thank you for getting back to me.
The contests run every week, but no commitment or regular participation is required to join in, you can just drop in when you feel like it, most people don't enter every week, so you are very welcome to just enter the times you feel like it, or the prompts that grab your attention, as few and far between as that might be.
I can kinda struggle with facing people, replying, interacting, anything, but on the good days, when i want to join in with something, it's nice having somewhere that makes me feel wanted. I have had a few months where i haven't really done anything on here, and every time i come back to it, they welcome me back with open arms. There are no expectations in terms of joining in again and again, too many good writers get lost in the crowd on here and just wanted to point you in the direction of a friendly spot for fiction.
That said, we're not just here for the good days, if there is anything we could do on the bad days to help ease them a little, we would love to. (Although, I know that equally people wanting to be there can just add pressure and make it worse. I f you do want to leave it for now and come back to me another time, be that months from now, no matter how long it has been, I will still be very happy to hear from you)
